Just tweeting this so I can pin it. Thank you @maggiesmithpoet

@FourthWaver Right back at you 🤗

Going to keep this account open for my bookmarks & the covid/communicable disease list of accounts I maintain here, bc many people on that list haven't migrated to other platforms yet (I expect that to accelerate). But my eyeballs will be elsewhere for everything else.

[EF @ef21345]

Good luck out there, sisters - we're going to need it.

Unfortunately this is symptom-level analysis. The actual root cause is that the electorate was programmed to be hyper-sensitive to these topics. Under different circumstances the programming would have been different. The real problem is the programmers' ability to program.

Yes, we are headed toward a Potemkin democracy, where institutions will abandon their constitutional prerogatives and place loyalty to Trump above all else. Our Congress will become a rubber stamp, resembling those in Hungary, Russia, and imperial Rome.

Jamelle Bouie hits the nail on the head

People are not ready for what's coming

JUST IN: A Jan. 6 defendant is asking Judge Beryl Howell to postpone aspects of his case in light of Trump's election and promise to pardon many involved in the Capitol breach. https://t.co/Qnm3RzY8WX

Deport them to where? Other countries are not going to take back people that have been living here for years.

Really a show for the ages

Dems will not nominate a woman again. If I see a female President in my lifetime, she'll be a Republican.

Everyone always says it's not a problem with *women.* It's just a problem with that particular woman. Every time.

Thinking of that tweet that said American culture is large scale gender affirmation for men.

[EF @ef21345]

@glitteryfem We always were.

[James Surowiecki @JamesSurowiecki]

The conclusion politicians will draw from this election is that voters think high unemployment is preferable to high inflation. So the next time we end up in a recession, there's going to be very little political appetite for big stimulus to get us out of it.

[EF @ef21345]

@BretDevereaux They wanted the authoritarian. They wanted a "strong" man who promised to hurt the people they think should be hurt. It's not really more complicated.

[digby @digby56.bsky.social @digby56]

It means he is going to take credit for the economy that already exists (as he did before) and over half the country will worship him for it.

Last thought before attempting to go to bed: if Americans are willing to reelect Trump after everything he’s said in the past three months, there’s nothing Harris could’ve done.

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

And again, Democrats fix the economy and hand it over to Republicans to destroy. Each and every time.

[Markos Moulitsas kos.bsky.social @markos]

More than that, they’re going to be quitting subscriptions. The media failed us. Why should we support it?

BREAKING: Deep red Missouri votes to repeal near-total abortion ban and codify abortion until viability into the state constitution. https://t.co/lSZGBL0ifm

[PoliticsGirl @IAmPoliticsGirl]

When we get through this the ERA needs to be back in play. Women aren’t second class citizens and our rights and lives should never be on the line like this again.
